Day 1: Traveling

It was an early morning for all of us going on the Leonora Bush Mission Trip. Most of us were up before 5am getting ready for a long and exciting adventure ahead. Just after 6am the bus left from Perth and we headed straight towards Tammin. After about an hour, the city soon became the country and we knew that we were on our way. In Tammin, we stopped for a late breakfast and a short break. Then we headed straight back onto the bus and just kept going. After a few more hours had passed we headed into Bodallin for a lunch break. From there we headed straight to Coolgardie.To entertain ourselves along the way we played games, sang songs, watched movies and chatted. Once we arrived in Coolgardie we had a quick stretch and play on the play ground and then we kept going to Kalgoorlie where we had dinner. After we had dinner we prepared ourselves for the last hike of the journey. We rolled up into Leonora at about 7:15pm and we set up for the night. Overall it was a fantastically long journey and we saw many interesting and beautiful things along the way such as the sunrise, sunset, dust storms and the hot beaming sun.

Day 2: Setting up for the big day.........

It was a good morning after a good night sleep which we all needed. We left at 9:15 for church to start the big day ahead. After the service, we headed back to the Sport Centre, to change for the rest of the day and then we headed back out to get supplies for setting up for Day 3. We unloaded the bus with the supplies,and started to set up the craft room and bringing in tables for lunch. We had some amazing lunch cooked by Mrs Mellado and Mrs Bryant, and after lunch we started on the painting of the back drops for the play. When we finally finished the backdrops, we went back and got changed for the late church service, for fellowship and worship but we had dinner first, then we went to church, we came back after the service. We came back and relaxed, then we finally got a working shower and toilets tonight and then I blogged.
